Recovery Meditations

Just for today I will seek to serve others with kindness, doing what is right, and walking humbly with God.

All of us rely on ourselves to some degree to do those things that are important for life and happiness.

We seldom have a day when we are not worried about something.

God is aware of every difficult moment we have experienced and the pain we have endured for every wrong done to us or by us.

This life we have been given, this new season that is before us, begins with each new day.

How many times did people try to help us see the truth about our problem when we were in active addiction?

Jesus told the story of two men who went to church to pray.

Anger in our society is rampant. Most of us have a hard time dealing with anger.

Fear is a disturbing emotion which is triggered by the expectation that something unpleasant is about to happen.

While watching the evening news, we often hear about a disaster caused by someone driving while drunk or high on drugs, or learn of the next grim statistic of the opioid crisis around the world.

When we unreservedly give our will and life over to the care of God, our lives are positively changed.

When we first come into recovery, we may not be aware of the importance of making a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves as Step 4 of the 12-Step program requires.
